And On The Undercard, Alf Takes On Chief Wahoo Mcdaniel

Hogan and Andre will meet for the World Wrestling Federation heavyweight championship on a three-match card NBC will telecast live on Feb. 5, from 7-8 p.m. (Chicago time).

The telecast marks the return of live wrestling to prime time television after 33 years.

The last live match was broadcast on March 5, 1955, on the defunct DuMont network.

NBC has recently been pre-empting ``Saturday Night Live`` once a month to show taped wrestling matches, and the shows have beaten SNL in the Nielsen ratings. The program broadcast Nov. 28, 1987, was viewed by 28 million people. Yes, 28 million people.

Vince McMahon will be the host of next month`s extravaganza, with color commentary by Jesse ``the Body`` Ventura. Other matches on the card pit Randy ``Macho Man`` Savage against the Honkytonk Man, and Strike Force vs. the Hart Foundation in a tag team event.

In case you`re not one of the 28 million, the Hart in the Hart Foundation is Jimmy ``Mouth of the South`` Hart, who not only wrestles but also manages the Honkytonk Man. Randy ``Macho Man`` Savage is managed, of course, by the Lovely Elizabeth.
